Contact UsMany auto technicians will agree that the most sophisticated element of today's vehicles is the transmission. To decrease the chances of breakdowns and costly transmission repairs, we invite you to make an appointment with Brogan & Folz Firestone's team in Cincinnati, OH for transmission service.
Professional auto transmission service
Modern automatic transmissions are one of the most complex auto components. Mechanical, hydraulic and electrical systems, and computer controls, must be synchronized to power the engine and wheels. With so many parts working together, and potentially expensive repairs, your transmission requires professional maintenance service.
Transmission issues may start with overheating caused by stop-and-go traffic, pulling heavy loads, driving in extreme weather or at high speeds. At high temperatures transmission fluid burns, causing lubrication loss and increased deposits inside the transmission. To prevent transmission damage:
- Regularly check your parking space for leaks or fluid deposits under your car
- Check the transmission fluid levels and condition
- Use the transmission fluid specified in your owner's manual
- Fully stop before shifting into reverse or park
- Hold the brakes down when shifting from park
At the first signs of transmission issues, we recommend you speak with a member of our team as soon as possible to address any problems.
